I'm working on a HABITAT story about the practical aspects of putting in a playground -- as well as what house rules should be written for that. I'd love to speak with a couple of board members with experience in this, which would be of great help to fellow board members who may be thinking about installing a playground. Please contact me at flovece@habitatmag.com to arrange a few minutes to speak -- I'm on deadline now.

I'd afraid I didn't run across anything like, for example, NYSERDA energy-efficiency rebates/grants. The cost of installing a playground appears to start at about $25K at bare minimum. But they last 20 years or more so the cost is spread out, and as one board president told me, amenities like this raise the value of all apartments, not just those with children.
The piece has been written, and is set to appear in the July/August issue of Habitat!
